Professor Karl sat in the audience. He couldn’t help but nod his head in praise of Jiang Yu and Bessie’s musical.
An exquisite middle-aged woman sat beside him. She smiled and said, “I was wondering why you would suddenly pay so much attention to a student. I saw it today, and I think you have good taste. This Jiang Yu is really good at playing the piano.”
The woman’s name was Bai Rui, and she was Karl’s wife. She was also a waltz professor in the dance department.
Professor Karl smiled and stroked the back of Bai Rui’s hand, saying, “Of course I have good taste. Otherwise, how could I marry such an excellent wife like you?”
Bai Rui smiled and said, “You really have a lot of flowery words.”
Professor Karl and Bai Rui sat below the stage, quietly watching the performance of Jiang Yu and Bessie.
After the performance, the whole place was silent. No one applauded or sneered.
Although the University of Cecilia offered a musical theater major, there were very few students who chose the piano category. There were only a few dozen students each year.
Until now, such a wonderful piano musical had not appeared in the University of Cecilia for decades.
Now that someone could perform such a wonderful piano musical, who would not be moved by it!
There was a long silence in the audience. Professor Karl stood up first, clapped his hands and shouted, “Good! Jiang Yu, Bessie, you didn’t disappoint me!”
The rest of the people also stood up and applauded. For a moment, the applause and cheers resounded throughout the entire campus.
The six people on the stage bowed politely and lined up to leave the stage. They saw Professor Karl walking over with Bai Rui.
“Jiang Yu!” The joy on Professor Karl’s face could not be hidden at all. He said, “You and Bessie did not disappoint me. Your musical performance was really good, even better than what I expected!”
Jiang Yu and Bessie smiled and said, “Thank you for your compliment, Professor Karl.”
Bai Rui also smiled and said, “Hello, nice to meet you. I’m a Professor of Waltz in the dance department, Bai Rui.”
“Nice to meet you, Professor Bai Rui.” Jiang Yu and Bessie were very polite.
Professor Karl also introduced, “This is my wife.”
Jiang Yu was very calm, but Bessie seemed to have heard some big news. Her eyes and mouth opened wide.
Professor Karl smiled and said, “Haha, your performance is very good. I can tell you now that the score I gave you is 83 points.”
“83 points!” Bessie shouted in surprise, “Professor Karl, will this score be counted in our total score?”
Professor Karl nodded and said, “Of course. As long as you earnestly complete the task I gave you, then you will definitely pass the practical class during the final exam.”
“Great!” Bessie jumped up happily, but suddenly thought of Kang Xue and asked, “Professor Karl, what about Kang Xue?”
Speaking of Kang Xue, Professor Karl’s face turned ugly again. He said with a bad tone, “Her score can only be a negative score. If It’s just a bad performance, I think I’ll give her a low score. But the three of them made such a scene on the stage today. Not only did they embarrass themselves, but they also embarrassed our elite class. If we don’t give her a negative score, where will my face go?”
What he said made sense. After all, Kang Xue and the other two made a scene in front of all the teachers and students in Cecilia’s school. Not only did they embarrass themselves, but the entire elite class was also put at risk.
Jiang Yu said, “They have brought this upon themselves.”
Professor Karl said, “In the competition, I tried my best to ask the professors to give you the first place, but they insisted on Kang Xue taking the first place. Now, they should have seen how embarrassing Kang Xue was on the stage today!”
It could be seen that Professor Karl was really angry because his expression was very ugly now.
Jiang Yu and Bessie were very sensible and said, “Then, Professor Karl, we’ll go back and rest first. You and Professor Bai Rui should also get some rest too.”
Professor Karl nodded and didn’t say anything.
Jiang Yu and Bessie took the other four people back, but they didn’t go to rest. Instead, they went to a steak shop outside the school.
“In order to celebrate, Jiang Yu and I will pay today!” Bessie shouted happily.
